Bluetooth Posted Monday, 26 MAY 2003 Apparently, we're not the only ones who've had less than a satisfying experience with most Bluetooth devices so far. David Berlind over at ZDNet has an article which pretty much captures the issues in a nutshell.

Quebec consumer group attempting to sue Dell Canada over Axim prices! Posted Monday, 12 MAY 2003 The Union des consommateurs is apparently attempting to sue Dell Canada after the Dell website erroneously listed the Dell Axim PDA's at prices less than a tank of gas in Montreal.  Dell shook up pda prices with its introduction of the Axim, but they are not "literally" just giving them away.
